NAME

Alien::Build::Plugin::Probe::Override - Override on a per-alien basis

VERSION

version 0.03

SYNOPSIS

in your ~/.alienbuild/rc.pl:

 preload 'Probe::Override';
 
 sub override {
   my($dist) = @_;
   return 'system'  if $dist eq 'Alien-gmake';
   return 'share'   if $dist eq 'Alien-FFI';
   return 'default' if $dist eq 'Alien-libuv';  # lets the alienfile choose
   return ''; # fall back on $ENV{ALIEN_INSTALL_TYPE}
 };

DESCRIPTION

This alienfile plugin allows you to override the install type (either share, system or default) on a per-Alien basis. All you have to do is preload this plugin and then provide a subroutine override, which takes a dist name (similar to a module name, but with dashes instead of double colon). It should return one of:

system: For a system install
share: For a share install
default: Fallback on the alienfile default.
'': Fallback first on ALIEN_INSTALL_TYPE and then on the alienfile default.
